EPA's Village Green prototype

The EPA's "Village Green" project aims to "increase air pollution monitoring capabilities in communities" in order to provide "real-time air pollution measurements at lower cost and maintenance." 

Data arrives minute-by-minute from a prototype solar-powered air pollution monitor located near the Durham County Library South Regional Branch in Durham, North Carolina.

National proliferation of such localized metrics would allow for communities to better understand their unique impacts and the benefits of clean air for all.
